Today, whether you’re a design student, a working professional, or just someone trying to make a decent looking flier, you’re faced with what seems like limitless choices of typefaces to choose from. Internet searches return thousands upon thousands of free fonts, many of them poorly made. Scholarly resources offer more direction, but can still run hundreds of examples deep. Choosing a typeface can feel overwhelming.
This book is a response to that overload. It presents a limited set of typefaces commonly used before digital tools became widely available, but during a time when modern technology still offered a wide array of options.
